It seemed like the majority of outlets were hyping up last night’s speech as a war announcement with US/Venezuela over oil. In reality, it was a trump campaign rally. Also announced was 10 billion to be given to Taiwan. Did something occur behind the scenes? aka, Russia or China saying no war🤔

🇨🇦 If you are a Canadian who still wants to travel to the US, you may want to put that thought aside. The US Thought Police want your social/personal history for the last five years. If you have said anything against Felon 47 you might be banned or jailed. US Tourism is dead. #CanadaSky🇨🇦
